Headers for Gen 1 Lightning?
I'd like to get a set of equal length shorty headers for my 94 Lightning, and I'm wondering if mustang headers will fit my stock h-pipe? I can pick them up pretty cheap, but do I need the headers for a 79-93 stang or a 94-95 stang, or will they mate-up to the h-pipe at all?
Thanks.
Thanks.

On my 94 I used BBK chrome unequal length headers. If you watch dyno sheets the difference in power between the 2 is very very little. Sometimes equal is better and somtimes unequal is. I got my headers for 230 and they came with gaskets studs and bolts. The only thing is that you have to plug the exhaust passage hole with a 3/4 inch plug. These headers will bolt to stock H-pipe with slight mod. that any competent exhaust shop can do for you.

I ran Hooker equal length headers on my 94 for 6 years without any problems....bolted right onto the stock collectors.
